"Scott played on 14 of the offense's 65 snaps and was the clear No. 2 running back ahead of Cam Akers (one snap on offense). Scott's fumble could put his No. 2 running back role at risk, but it doesn't appear Akers is a significant threat. However, Scott may have just one more game as the backup if Aaron Jones (hamstring) is able to return from injured reserve Week 8."

"Shough was selected by the Saints in the second round of April's draft. He is the oldest QB in this rookie class (25), having spent his seven collegiate seasons at Oregon, Texas Tech and Louisville. He completed only 63% of his passes last season and for his career, but has a big frame, good arm and adds some value with his legs (career 196-1,109-11 line). Following Derek Carr's shocking retirement in May, Shough will slot in as the Saints' No. 2 QB behind Spencer Rattler. Shough figures to eventually earn starts this season, but even if he's on the field, he's unlikely to emerge as a consistent fantasy option in an offense that is expected to struggle in 2025. Shough should not be drafted."


"Shough got his first taste of the pros when he took over for Spencer Rattler on New Orleans' final drive in garbage time Sunday. The 2025 second-round pick failed to complete either of his pass attempts in the brief outing. This wasn't a changing of the guard, but it wouldn't be surprising to see Shough take over at some point this season if the Saints continue stacking losses under Rattler."
